After having purged all of these files through recovery, and getting into tty, I performed the following steps:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade (just to be sure)
sudo apt-get install --install-suggests fglrx-updates/wily-proposed fglrx-updates-core/wily-proposed fglrx-amdcccle-updates/wily-proposed lightdm xorg ubuntu-desktop
sudo aticonfig --initial

I then looked into blacklist.conf, and couldn't see a line for blacklist amdgpu (there was one for amd76x_edac), so I added that line. I then restarted to a black screen. I restarted twice more to see if this was a problem that just required a few reboots, but no joy.

I rebooted into recovery (and re-purged the installed packages, and unblacklisted amdgpu), and the output for "dmesg | grep fglrx" is attached. Are there any further potential steps I can take?
